YIELDS: 6 SERVINGS

PREP TIME: 0 HOURS 15 MINS

TOTAL TIME: 1 HOUR 0 MINS

INGREDIENTS

1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 yellow onion, diced

2 lb. ground beef

2 tbsp. kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

2 tbsp. keto taco seasoning mix 

1 jalapeño, seeded and minced, plus more sliced for garnish

6 large eggs, lightly beaten

2 c. shredded Mexican cheese

2 tbsp. freshly chopped parsley leaves

1 c. sour cream, for serving (optional)

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350°. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook until slightly softened, 2 minutes. 

Add ground beef and season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 6 minutes. Sprinkle in taco seasoning and jalapeño and cook, stirring, until spices are lightly toasted, 1 minute. Drain and let cool slightly. 

In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs, then add in meat mixture. Spread mixture into an even layer in the bottom of a 2-quart baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese. 

Bake until set, about 25 minutes. 

Sprinkle with parsley and top each slice with a dollop of sour cream and jalapeño, if desired.
